Incredible governmenting

In a new video from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Elder Geritt W. Gong of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles explores “how to hear God’s voice clearly in an age of artificial intelligence (AI), and why that distinction matters more now than ever.”

Here’s a thought for Rep. Stefanik—the U.S. would do well to first hire and retain (and rehire) all the technologists who already want to serve their country before thinking about a new service academy. Many such pathways to serve already existed and were entirely destroyed by DOGE. wapo.st/45dVoxX

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? We don't have a definitive count of how many federal agencies exist.

New from Jen Easterly and me: as threats to our critical infrastructure increase, U.S. policymakers need to defend + strengthen the role of security research. This is personal for me, having received legal threats for good-faith security research. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/adva...

It is essential for U.S. policymakers to actively protect and promote the role of security research within an open and transparent ecosystem.

This is what happens when 18F goes away: beta.weather.gov has been deactivated, “due to the loss of critical federal staff, which leaves this project without the resources to continue its development or for routine monitoring and maintenance.” 18f.org/projects/#:~...
Screenshot of beta.weather.gov with an announcement info box saying "beta.weather.gov has been deactivated until further notice." The message continues by mentioning "This page has been deactivated...due to the loss of critical federal staff, which leaves the project without the resources required to continue its development or for routine monitoring and maintenance."

The administration got rid of 18F under the cover of night. People who own skyscrapers are afraid of 100 people who make websites. Not because of the latest tech fad, but because we proved the government can be fixed, the government can be made better and the government can work for the people.

I’m heartsick thinking about the destruction of 18F. The lights of my own public service turned on when I learned about them in 2014. I’ve worked among them and learned from them, and the American public lost orders of magnitude more than whatever small amount won’t be expended on work left undone.

📣 PSA: I made a playlist that reflects how I feel about this moment in my decade+ of governmenting. It’s called “Public Service Accompaniment” 🎵 Devotion, resignation, resolve, disappointment, motivation, loss, hope, and the wild swings between these feelings. It has a happy ending! We deserve one

Far be it from me to assess the entire federal workforce’s performance, but what I can say with no doubt is they are subject to the most oversight and accountability of any workforce in the country.
